Sai Durgha Tej[1] (born Sai Dharam Tej; 15 October 1986) is an Indian actor who predominantly works in Telugu films. Tej started his acting career with the box office success Pilla Nuvvu Leni Jeevitham (2014), which earned him the SIIMA Award for Best Male Debut – Telugu.[2]
Post his debut, Tej appeared in films such as Subramanyam for Sale (2015) and Supreme (2016), which were box office successes. Back-to-back critical and commercial failures followed this.
